We are both so sorry to hear of the loss of Red. He was a wonderful person with a huge heart and a great sense of humour. When we first met him 25 years ago, it was apparent how much he loved his family. He talked about the granchildren and proudly displayed their pictures in his office. He made everyone he came in contact with feel special; he will be missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you....

Just wanted to let all the family and friends of Red know that we are thinking of you. Red always could make us laugh no matter what the situation. He will always have a special place in our heart. Love you guys.

Dear Phyllis, I was very sad to hear that Red had passed on. I know how sad this must be for you and the family. I will always remember Red as the Best Man at my wedding, smilling and making us all laugh. He is now with Joe and I am sure they are catching up on all the many years that have rolled on by. With sympathy and Love, Carole
